The "frisbee internet"
A resource to help you find that thing you're looking for
I've always thought it would be cool to put together some sort of overview of the "frisbee internet". I've already put together a list of
(2025-04-14, Edited to add): and Ultimate-related data science projects
On this page are some other corners of the frisbee internet. I hope it can be helpful in some way, whether it's to find some long-dead blog from the early 2000s or to find a site to get a jersey made.
Much of the frisbee internet nowadays happens on Twitter or Instagram. Unfortunately, I'm not currently on either of those sites, so I won't be including any Twitter or Instagram accounts here.
I think of this page as a rough draft; I look forward to both adding more sites to it and finding better ways to present the information in this post. If you know of more sites I should add to this page, please get in touch! (Email address is on the About page)
Before scrolling, please enjoy this funny (I think) flowchart I found on a long-defunct blog:
